Theme idea, but not sure about it.

spotcatbug:
Took me a while (I just couldn’t give up the search), but now I see the seas in the middles. The first word has ‘i’ before ‘e’ and then there’s a sea and then the second word has ‘e’ before ‘i’. ‘i’ before ‘e’ except after ‘c’.

Even taking the seas out of the middles, I don’t recognize the phrases. Well, “Quiet reign,” maybe. Still not sure, though. “Spies black” and “Tie sheik” don’t mean anything to me. I don’t think you can just take random “ie” and “ei” words and connect them seas to make your themers. I would like to see the clues, though.

The idea is that the clue would be done in a way that the whole phrase makes sense. What I was curious about is whether the wordplay (essentially it's "I before E except after SEA") would be obvious. I don't think it is enough, so I've tweaked it a bit and have something better I believe
